## Abstract

The present disclosure provides a VR mask and a mask bracket. The VR mask includes a mask main body, which is configured to be connected with a mask bracket. The mask main body includes a fabric layer and a bracket connecting component. The fabric layer is connected to the bracket connecting component to form an accommodating cavity. A filling layer is arranged in the accommodating cavity. When a user wears VR equipment, the fabric layer of the mask main body is in direct contact with the skin of the user. A fabric used in the fabric layer is softer and more comfortable than a hard or viscous material, which can better adapt to the facial contour of the user. Furthermore, the fabric usually has good breathability, which allows air circulation, reduces moisture and excessive sweating, and can satisfy the best performance and improve the wearing experience of the user.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A VR mask and mask bracket, comprising:
a mask bracket, wherein the mask bracket is provided with a viewing port;
a mask main body, wherein the mask main body is configured to be connected with the mask bracket; the mask main body is arranged around the viewing port; the mask main body comprises a fabric layer and a bracket connecting component; the fabric layer is connected to the bracket connecting component to form an accommodating cavity; and a filling layer is arranged in the accommodating cavity;
